Four to five high quality hitters beats lazy ports, non-games like Mario Kart AR, and C tier releases like Mystery Dungeon and Paper Mario.

Also, obviously Nintendo would have more than that in those years. I kept it to the good stuff that is worth buying.

Thank you for clarifying. Still, I'd say that the thread should be about all first party game output, then judge the output based on that. Quality is so subjective, one person might buy everything and another might buy nothing. Even going by what is GOING to sell isn't a good indicator, as you mention Monolith Soft in your list, but consider Paper Mario and Mystery Dungeon to be C tier when they've both sold more than games in the Xenoblade franchise. 

The Wii's 2011-2012 was awful because there were next to no first party games in general. 2011 was Skyward Sword, Kirby's Return to Dreamland, Poke Park 2, Rhythm Heaven Fever, Mario Sports Mix and Fortune Street. For 2012 it was just Mario Party 9 and Kirby Collection. Even 2020 beats that abysmal lineup I would say, based on both quality and quantity. Do you really think that the next few years for Switch will be even worse than 2020?
